Sheety Turns Spreadsheets Into Binaries, For Some Reason. Sheety compiles spreadsheet definitions into a self-contained, executable binary with zero runtime dependencies. It presents a simple terminal application (with mouse support) in which one can browse and edit data and formulas with a simple interface.
As far as formats go it can import and export Excel files, or a human-readable.yaml file. When Sheety runs, the data and formulas defined are compiled into a self-contained executable with the formulas baked in, and that’s actually what one sees and uses.
